The Bowery Hotel, New York

This trendy downtown Manhattan bolthole was one of Meghan’s favourite hangouts in her acting days, and it’s not hard to see why: the light-filled bedrooms, many with splendid views, must be some of the most attractive in Manhattan, and with a rustic Italian restaurant and handsome public spaces, you really can’t go wrong. The achingly cool Lower East Side, famed for its lively nightlife and stylish bars and restaurants, is on the hotel’s doorstep.
